OK,  I am usually strickly a car builder, but was looking for a change.  So modified one of the new release Revell chopper kits.   Added some rake and shortened forks for a more drag bike look.  Was going to go black but changed my mind at the last minute.   Hope you like,  Drew  Revell Chopper SDC11709_zpsc6b53987  Revell Chopper SDC11710_zpsfc5b3ea3  Revell Chopper SDC11712_zpsf549b8de  Revell Chopper SDC11711_zps3bd115b3  Revell Chopper SDC11713_zpseac8e0a9

I agree with Paul and it's unusual too.

What did you use for the exhaust bandage?. It looks good.

Hi Drew,

I think you knocked this way out of the ballpark, I love it, any chance of a go...

Did you paint the seat or is it a decal, looks very real, also, did you make the seat springs...

Thanks guys, the wrap on the exhaust is paper medical tape washed with thinned brown paint, the seat springs were cut pcs. from a pen, and the seat was painted brown then washed with darker brown paint then dull coated. Thanks, Drew
